Abstract

In contrast to other techniques utilized in physiological studies, calcium imaging can visualize target neurons located deep in the brain. Here, we present a protocol for one-photon calcium imaging of dorsal and ventral CA1 neurons in head-fixed mice. We describe procedures for injecting GCaMP6f virus, implanting a gradient-index (GRIN) lens, and installing a baseplate for Inscopix microscope mounting. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Yun etal.1.
